Sara Solla explores what it means for groups of neurons to most efficiently represent information in the sensory world.

researchers discovered a new species of snailfish inhabiting trenches there with each trench home to its own species of the fish. “To test whether these species would be found in all trenches, we repeated our experiments on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, some 6,000 miles from our last observations,” said Jamieson. During the three-week expedition of the research vessel Sonne, the research...

Sara Courtneidge has recently been appointed vice-president of research in the California-based biotechnology company, Sugen, Inc. Her pioneering research into how the Src tyrosine kinase is involved in cellular transformation has provided the basis for understanding how members of the src gene family act in normal signal transduction pathways. In her new position, Dr Courtneidge will be trying...

In software design it is highly desirable to be able to deal with the structures of both the algorithm and the record ~_~ execution. A design methodology called SARA is being developed at UCLA. SARA's models are able to deal with the record of execution structure. This paper proposes the addition of a Module Interconnection Language to enable SARA to deal with the algorithm structure. An exampl...

CASE Steven Davis, the divorced father of Sara Davis, aged 7 years, called Dr. Francis, Sara’s pediatrician, with a sense of distress and urgency as he asked for “another opinion” about his daughter’s attentiondeficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Mr. Davis asked if he could first speak to the doctor without Sara present. Dr. Francis agreed, and at a first meeting Mr. Davis explained that his ...

OBJECTIVE Although the WHO-developed Service Availability and Readiness Assessment (SARA) tool is a comprehensive and widely applied survey of health facility preparedness, SARA data have not previously been used to model predictors of readiness. We sought to demonstrate that SARA data can be used to model availability of essential medicines for treating non-communicable diseases (EM-NCD). ME...

Background. S. entericamanipulate the inflammatory response through the injection of effector proteins that alter host signaling pathways. Characterizing the functions of these effectors and their role in virulence can reveal novel mechanisms important in infection and autoimmunity. Methods. Luminex screening of cytokine levels was used to identify cytokines regulated by S. enterica in immortal...
